The goal of this cluster randomised controlled trial (cRCT) is to to evaluate the effectiveness of an educational intervention combining training in hand-washing with the supply of MONO-RUBs on the reduction of skin abscesses (both observed and self-reported) in people who inject drugs (PWID).
The main questions it aims to answer are:
According to cluster randomisation, PWID will be assigned to:
To measure the effectiveness of the educational hand-washing intervention, the primary outcome will be the reduction in abscess prevalence compared in both groups. Statistical analyses for the primary outcome will involve comparing the reduction in abscess prevalence in the intervention arm with that in the control arm. This prevalence will be measured from observed and self-declared data, collected from the injection-site photographs and the face-to-face injection-related SSTI questionnaire, respectively.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Intervention Arm | Active Comparator | The intervention among people who inject drugs (PWID) from the intervention arm consist in : i) educational hand washing training ("fingertips first" model), ii) supply of single use alcohol-based hand rub (called MONO-RUB). Only staff from the 11 harm reduction (HR) centres in the intervention arm will be trained in the educational hand-washing intervention. |
|
| Control Arm | No Intervention | The 11 control arm HR centres will be the placebo group. People who inject drugs (PWID) in this group will receive standard HR services, including to reduce abscesses if necessary. MONO-RUBs will not be made available in these HR centres during the intervention period. |

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change in abscess prevalence | The primary outcome will be the change in abscess prevalence between M0 and M6, compared between the control and intervention arms, measured from observed and self-declared data, collected from the injection-site photographs and the face-to-face injection-related SSTI questionnaire, respectively | Month 0; Month 3; Month 6 |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change in incidence of injection-related SSTI complications other than abscesses (e.g., cellulitis, skin ulcer, etc). | This will be assessed using the injection site photographs and the face-to-face injection-related SSTI questionnaire | Month 0; Month 3; Month 6 |
| Impact of the educational intervention on injection practices (use of sterile equipment, equipment sharing, and injection into a dangerous body site) |

Data obtained through the HaWa study may be provided to qualified researchers with academic interest in harm reduction for PWID. Data or samples shared will be coded, and deidentified. Approval of the request and execution of all applicable agreements are prerequisites to the sharing of data with the requesting party.
Data requests can be submitted starting 9 months after last article publication and the data will be made accessible for up to 24 months. Extensions will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
Access to trial IPD can be requested by qualified researchers engaging in independent scientific research, and will be provided following review and approval of a research proposal and Statistical Analysis Plan (SAP) and execution of a Data Sharing Agreement (DSA).

The HAWA study is a community-based participatory research conducted in 22 harm reduction centres in France which will be cluster randomised to determine those who will propose the intervention (standard services + brief education to hand washing + MONO-RUB distribution) and those who will be the control group (standard services). After randomization, each group of HR centres will include 220 PWID within an inclusion period of 12 months and a follow-up period of 6 months.

This will be determined using data from the three computer-assisted telephon interview (CATI) questionnaires. The EQ-5D-5L1 questionnaire is an European quality of life scale. The first part contains questions known as the "EQ-5D descriptive system", supplemented by a visual analogue scale known as the "EQ-5D VAS". It consists of a 20 cm, graduated from 0 to 100, on which the person must indicate how he or she rates his or her current state of health, 0 being the worst possible state and and 100 being the best. |
| Month 0 ; Month 6 |
| MONO RUB Compliance, tolerance and satisfaction associated with the intervention (by measuring adverse events of MONO-RUB use) | This will be determined by mesuring adverse events, only in the intervention arm | Month 6 |
